“Yeah, I’ll be f-fine.”
In truth walking hurt to do. But he didn’t want to inconvenience the other any more than he already has. Walking out through the front door he saw his ship sitting there and a few of his things out in the sun just like she said. Some clothes hanging up, a few parts, and a crate of Nanotech which he quickly limped to and sat on.
“You d-didn’t happen to see a big w-wrench in all my s-stuff would you?”
“If you’re sure, alright.”

“Yeah, it’s on one of the wings, I put it on a towel just in case it had any water in it. If it did, it doesn’t anymore, today’s a pretty hot day.”
Rebecca leaned against the orchard gate a few feet away, hoping that Ice Beaming the ship hadn’t been a bad idea.
“Nothin’ ruined, I hope? I can’t really tell.”
Making their way to the door his steps got more and more stable as he went. Eventually he took his arm off the other and took a few steps on his own. Seems he was fine now.
“Thanks… and s-sorry for the trouble.”

“It’s alright, hun. You feel like you’ll be okay walking now?”
Rebecca went to open the front door so they could go outside, unlocking it and sliding it open.
Now they were curling up into a ball. They tried holding onto their purple tail but even that hurt somewhat.
‘I don’t know. I haven’t felt like this since I got here.’
“Alright, little one. D’you think y’can teleport back to that lab? Maybe the scientists’ll know what to do…”

“I wish I’d be able to help but I don’t know what to do, sweetie… I’m sorry…”
Oh how Rebecca wanted to hug the little Pokemon but she didn’t want to hurt him.
“Berries, eh, babe?
Got anything red?
Strawberries?
Raspberries?
Cranberries?’Cause I’m a little peckish.”

“Yes, actually. They’re called Cheri berries where I come from though y’gotta be careful with ‘em. One squeeze and the juice inside can give you a second degree burn.”
Rebecca went into her bag and took out a small case with little red berries inside. She carefully took one out and offered it to the other with her bandaged hand.
And across the multiverse, the former champion sneezed right off her futon once again and right onto her face.
She got back onto her futon, growling curses to turn the air blue.

“Arceus almighty, what the fuck is going on?! I’m not allergic to anything on Undella Bay! This is the second night in a row!”

"Are you trying something without someone teaching you basics first?”


“Lil’ bro? What in the name of Arceus are you doing?”
‘That…is quite astonishing Rebecca. If Silver says they’re good, then they must be.’

“I’m kinda biased because I’m the one who grew them. And mhm, it’s fun if I make a game out of it. ‘Pick thirty berries in ten minutes’ and stuff like that. Challenges are fun for me.”
‘Well, certainly a worthy living if that is what the harvest is for. And cake is always good as a reward.’

“Yup! There’s people all over this region who give berries to new trainers. The berries I grow are the ones they give. According to Silv, they’re really good.”
